Dear Governor Hughes:


:,.t
.

In my recent letter to you about the Englewood Sehool situation, I mentioned that I was extremely pleased. with the forthright stand. you and Dr. Rar:binger had taken on the legal question (and moral issue) of d.e faeto segregation in tJ:e State of New Jersey pr:blie schools. BotJ: the feelings of you 'and. those of Dr. Raubinger, will, f am sure, be implemented in tl:e Englewood. Sehool Case now befor you. .Board
the Kjnd.ergarten through fourth grades with no eonrnitnent tJ:at thesea grades will at Erny time in the fulrrre be integrated..
or not (w stian baekground) we 6 gation in rm to be inumoral or, as individual NS feel it nes or eomodes our demoeratie soeiety in general) is not ttre frimary issue. ltre real issue before Dr. Raubinger and is ttra tlre United. state@ has nrled segregitea * ish gf to all child.ren, and these Englewood childrenne K ttrrough ades wilI eontinue to be (iII in an important fo
tr{het}rer

The decision of the Englewood. Sehoo1 Board ti:is week was to Sntegrate tlie 5th grad.e this year and the 6th next year, Ieaving not-integrated

Perrn:it me , if you wiII, to illustrate how this Englewood. School Boand d.eeision will d.efinitely be harrnful to atJ- children, both white and. Negro.

ehilglen wgu]-d be penglized.. Soeiologists and psyehologists have clearly established. tftat the lower soeio-eeonorn-ie backgror:nd of most Negno families generally serves to imped.e the development of ehild.ren (even in the pre -school age) of the se f anuiJ-ie s the best in these ehild.ren cannot easily be brought out. Going to school in the Iower grades in tJ:e scrme tlpe of ,-rrrsitisfaetory ett rinott*ent , further empedes these youngsters. By the tjrne ttrese children reaeh the 5th grad.e, they wou-Ld generalfy have been still- further behind in their

on July 9, L962 rhe Federal Disrrict courr


dismissed a suLt brought by certain Negro minors and

their parents against the Board of Education of the city of Englewood, the city superintendent of schools
and the State Comrissioner

of Education.

The basis

for

this di'srnissal, which was without prejud,ice to the filing of another comPlaint, was the failure of the plaintiffs to exhaust the state adninistrative remedies which are
available under N.J.S.A.
GonmLssloner

and 15 before the

of Education and the State Board of Edueation. Ttre plaintiffs have not as yer filed a peririon

before the Corrrnissioner under N.J.S.A. l-8 z3-L4 nor have they serr,red the Coumissioner with a notice of appeal from

the decision in the Federal District court.

Adninistrative

As noted

in the decision of Judge Augelli' the

plaintiffs in the Englewood case have a remedy readily available to them under N.J.S.A. 18 23'L4 and N.J.S.A. L8: 3- 15 . Ttre former statute empowers the Conrmissioner to decide alt controversies and disputes arising under the schooL laws, and the latter statute provides for a
frrrther appeal to the State Board of Education. The plaintiffs in Lhe Englewood case have not fiLed a petition
pursuant to N.J.S .A.
1,8: 3-

14.

The lllalker case which $tas decided

by the Com-

missioner of Educatlon in

1955

tflaw Against DJ.scri"minatioot', N.J.S .A. 18 225-L,

'

was brought under the

g9g.

This statute pe::nits the Corunlssioner of Education, the

tradition

ar^

Attorney Generar., and the corrrmissioner of Labor and rndustry to file complaints. Ttte Attorney GeneraL participates

ln the Prosecution of the lts


own concerning

compLaint '

Ttre Stete egtrld conduct, an

investigation of

discrimination in the schools of Errglewood. rf it is satisfied that discrimination exists the Co,rrnnlssloner of Education or the Attorney GeneraL
could then fiLe a cornpl,aint with the Divisi.on on civiL

Rights. I'hen, lnstead of having to wait for the individual f.itigants to bring errldence before the comnissioner under 1g:3-14, the state couLd controL Ehe course of lltigation
and

participate in the ProsecuEion of the case ' this I step wouLd not be in vioLation of Judge Atrgelli s order
since his opinion i"npl,ies that the Wglksr case
was

properly handled before the Divisi-on.

It
probLem

may be more

approPriate in meeting the

of de facto segregation to proceed under the school laws rather than the Laws Against Dlscrimination. Ttre authority granted by the school Laws to assure equal
educational, opportunity may allow a broader and more

apProPriate approach to the problo1n. It


necessary

wo1rLd

not be

to

prcnTe

intentionaLr purposeful discrimination

r,y dl.rect evidence or by implication. I'he City of Englewood may

very welL be able to establish Lhat Negroes are


a1,1,

freely adnltted to

public school s within the

established zones of attendance, that there are uany


Negro teachers Ln the school system,

that the zones

Irere reasonably drawn and other faetors that would negate

the charge of intentional, irvi.dious discrinination.


However, the

real purpose in eliminating de facto

segregation is the establishment of an educational-

that meets the emoti.onaL needs of the students. Ttris appears to be more of an educational problem than
atmosphere

a probleu arising under the Laws Against DiscriminaLion.

Consider for a moment the vast cifference between the situation in Albany, Georgi-a, where flisgrinination really existsr erd the InglewooC case, rtere all that is claj-meo is racial lmbalance. In Al-bany, Georgia, the Negroes woulc rejoice if they could. only irave the nei-ghborhood. school concept aCopted ; tbere r 8 s 1n rnany other southerrr communitles, there has been a failure io conply r.ith the -\rtrrene Courtts decision in the Brorrr case. Iet in Elrglewood, l*rere the neighborhood school concept is followed, and ubere race is not and never has been the test to deterr-lne uhich school e chilo must attend, we are bei::g pillorieC because the School Board. has not taken affiraative steps in r,'i:1ch eolor roulc have to be usec as a test - to even out the raclal eomposition of our schools.

Neither the l/+th Amendment nor the Brorm deci-sion reouires sueh affirnrative stepsl they are alneg, lnstead, at the eliniination of diserimi:rati.on. Aceord"ingly, and 6respany educati-onal- merlts of the d-eniands, iJr i-nsi_sting upon frd 1 imbalance the Negroes are blaiming something to whil y have no cE tional- rigirt; something wb.ieh, if gran'r,ed, l.oulC a spe cial prir.ilege .

But it ought to be established, flrst, as a matter of 1aw,

In this regard the Board had argued that Lincoln School's heavy Negro enrollment u'as only the inevitable result of applying the neighborhood school policy to a communiti' rvhere residential patterns shorvecl a racial imbalance.

favor those who claim the Board has not been motivated by a desire to achieve school segregation. It states: "The majolitl- of people u'ho are familiar u'ith the Englewood situation are eonvinced that the present existence of segr.egation in the public schools is not a consequence of intentional gerry,mandering of school

poseful desire of maintaining tiie Lincoln School as a racialll- segregated school." The Board began to apply the neighboll-rooC school policy in 1949 rvith extreme rigor. It hacl, ho$-ever, principalll- thi'ough gerr']'mandering school district lines, taken steps to assure that Lincoln School rvould hale almost a total Neglo student body.

be the principal authorities relied upon by plaintiffs. While the Brown case is no\\- generalll- *-ell understood, the New Rochelle case should be examiueC in a little detail. The ultimate fact:, as foun:l b1- Judge Kauf,man, u'ele that the Nerv Rochelle Boarcl of Education, prior to 1949, "intentionalll' created Lincoln Scirool as a racially segregateC school," auci, since 194.9, "has been motivated b1' the pur-

ent 94 per cent Negro enrollment at tlie Lincoin School goes beyond ,mere 'racial imbalance' and approximates closely the harmful conditions coude,mned in the

result of practices carried out u'ithin

district iines on the part of the schooi boald. Insofar as segregation exists in some of the schools it appears to be a

sacrosanct." He observecl that tire Board's establisliing Lincoln School as a segregated Negro school "falls squarely u'ithin the plain meaning of the Brown decision." He further observed that "if a Board of Education enters into a course of conduct motivatel b1' a purpoSeful desire to perpetuate and maintain a segregated schooi, the constitutional rights of those confined rvithin this segregated establishment hal-e been
violated." The follos'ing remarks from his opinBoard of Education seiects a school site, or othern'ise operates its schools, rvith a purposeful desire to segregate, or to maintain segregation, the Constitution has been violated.*** If such ,motivation is present, it makes no meaningful difference whether the segregation invoh'ed is ,maintained directl-v througir formal separation, or indirectiy, through o\rerrigid adherence to artificially created boundary lines, as in the present case. Similarly, it is of no moment q'hether the segregation is labelled by the defendant as 'de jure' or 'de facto,' as long as the Board, by its conduct, is responsible for its maintenan3e."

Judge Kaufman pointed out the neighborhood school policy "certainly is not

the result of the deliberate conduct of the Board, the plaintiffs and those similarly situated are entitled to some form of reiief." The New Rochelle case abounded in proof that the Board hacl adopted a deiiberate poiicl' of segregation. Is the same true for Englervood ? The Walker case's specific finding tirat the niaintenance of separate juniol high schools constituted "a violation of the lav;s against discrimination" could be heaviiy relied on by the integrationists. as coulcl the finding that the troundar'1- line betrl.eer Lincoln and Liberty School had not been drawn in accordance rvith the principies of the neighborhood schooi policy. It might be infemed flom this last finding that tlie Engleu.ood Board had attemnted to gerrymander district Iines to contain Negro children in the Lincoln School area. The integrationists might also be

spent Friday hearing

oral reports fron tbe tro

teams.

nade ttre fol-lowing decisd-ons:

(1) The Englewood tean acco!ry)rnied by Dr. Joseph Claybon ri3*l meet in a closed session t{ednesday, October 10, at h:00 P.U, rttJr tbe Board of Education to discuss the contents of the report. It is agreed that no part of the report rrlJl be neleased until tJre meett-ng is under say. tater Wednesday afterrroon the fult txt rriJ-l be girrea to tnterested mmbers of the press. One of the nembers of the tean someti-me l{ednesday evenlng wiJ-l acgtraint l,layor Volk with the report,.
{2) Alttrough I rrished to do sor it was not possible to get the Orange Board of ECucetion together earlier than Tuesday evening, October 16, at 8:00 P.I{. becauee the Boardf s attoraey could not be prcsent before that ti-ne. The satre procedure rill be followed except tbet the lrlayor riII not be involved in Orange. The Orange report wilt not be revealed to the press rrntil after the October 16 meeting.
tentatl,ve Judgnent based upon the trro reports leads ne to believe that there ls no solution to the question at hand which calr aPPIy to all corsrunlties. The contrast betreen the problens Ln Orange and Eng3.erood is
My

startling.

I an begiruring to qnestion very much whether re can Iay dona any inclusive principle or plan except in the most general tenms. F'or example, the Linclon Sehoo1 pupi-J.s (Englewood) seem to do less nelI on those phases of school work whi.ch are measurable by tests than those in other schools.

Assrrmiti tnis, e
memo

is to bring you up to d.ate

Both teams were cordially received by the board.s of educatlon of when ftll-l- oral reports were given, questions asswered", and rrports left '!'rith boarrt members. Copies of tfie r"ports rf,ere sj:nultaneously made available to the press. Press both in news coverage and edi"e"Ltioo, torial conmentr was unifor:nly favorable. No one has challenged thJ valid..ity of the data.

lived in

in close touch to see if the report a3d being given serious consideration. We knew itrt sone time would be required for absorbtion of the report and for jud.gments to form. T-he lornty Superjntendent of Bergen Cornty wil-t attend. the exeeutive meeting of !|-" F"glewood Boarrl on Novenber 7 to try to determj.:oe r+trat action, if anJr, i" llkely taken. In Oranger w intend to make the same ki:rd oi rottow-up.

want to eonmend. the members of the two teams. They ILteraILy or. near the eomrnrnities for more than two weeks, r,vorlcini long hours into each ni-8ht. They talked. lnith hund.reds of individuals and representatives of organizations. They culled an enormous anount of facts. tn itrort, each one went far beyond the call of duty.
As yolr know, I have no entertainrnent aceount. I should l1ke to have privileql 9f . taking these men and their wives to d.jrner at State expense !h" (perhaps $Z5O.oo) at convenient timer 3s a sma1l token of appreciation for the work they did.."6r" f shal1 certajnly keep you informed of further d.evelopments.

in addition

The asoeets erohasLze are 3

of the Faet Pinding

Reoort, t'hieh we should

ltke tc

1. The Faet Flndlne Connisslon Reeort does aelcrrenrledge the xistenee of r:aeial lrnbalanee wlthln the EnglemooC Fublle Sehool-s. ft, does aelcnor*Iedge tbat this raeial l.nbalanee eonstltutes a soeial and edueatlnnal evil whieh ts a slgnifleant negatlve faetor wlthin the ldneoLn Sehool eontributing to a high rate of under
aehlevenent and droo-outs.

2. The renort of the Faet Findir Conrrtsslon ael,oro'-ledges the resDonslbillty on the oart of our Clty Adnd-nlstratlon to eorreet. thls soelal and edueational eviI. 3. The Faet FlnClng, Cormlsslon eonsiders the Ensle Street Sehool obsolete, but ls, neverthel-ess, prepar^ed to reeommend the use of the Engle S^,,reet Sehool for a llrnlted oerlocl of tlme.
The rraJor arguments advaneed ln oDDosition and 5th Grade Sehool are as foller.rs:

Qrr r^enlrt to these obJeetlons ls as follorrs:

1. Although the Engle street sehool is eonsiderecl obsol-ete, it has never offielal1y been nrled as unusabl-e and unsafe for o?cu'aneyo The sta.te Faet Findlng connnisslon itself has reeonmended the use this Sehool eryen ln the faee of tts own statenent that the Sehool-of is g IU llu:11*:": It is o-o". assur:otlon that this Sehooi ean obtain a Certiflee.te -gJ. t/If ?I 3:"Y"]tort, or.wha',:I.l offielaL authorLzatlon is neeessa4rr for use

2. It has never been authorltatively established that ltshrnent of a centraL 5th and 5ttr Grade Plan ro"ra require the estabnefl taxation and eould not be net out of erlstlng sourees of revenue. 3. The Board of Edueation bas repeatedly stated that its Central 5th and 6ttr o7"6" Plan 1s adarrtable to a nurnber ofroig;; nossibilltles for deaLins lnth the sodlal- and edueationat/"r,ii ;f;"J;;ii;'least
